| <p> |
| In contrast to OpenType shaping, Graphite shaping does not |
| specify a predefined set of shaping models or a set of supported |
| scripts. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Instead, each Graphite font contains a complete set of rules that |
| implement the required shaping model for the intended |
| script. These rules include finite-state machines to match |
| sequences of codepoints to the shaping operations to perform. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Graphite shaping can perform the same shaping operations used in |
| OpenType shaping, as well as other functions that have not been |
| defined for OpenType shaping. |
